And not the tourist traps that have been filling perfectly good storage space in the backs of bodegas, pizzerias and pet stores across Williamsburg for a decade — but actual illicit drinking dens.

Page Six is told that a famous Upper East Side bar and lounge as well as a trendy downtown hotel have been opening up in spite of the coronavirus lockdown — but strictly for discreet friends of the owners and managers.

Meanwhile, the New York Post revealed this week that the Lower East Side’s Omar’s La Boîte hosted a small invite-only party in early May. “I know at least five people who were at [the hotel bar] on Monday night,” said a source. “I called one of them and said, ‘I heard you were at [said hotel bar] last night, and she sounded shocked. She said, ‘How did you know!’”

The source said that the spot has opened for several such surreptitious shindigs. After The Post published a picture of La Boîte that appeared to show a gathering of “over a dozen revelers with no masks in sight,” the club’s manager denied that there had been any parties there.

Then the owner, Omar Hernandez, said in a statement, “We are looking into this distressing report. I’m sheltering outside the city, certainly wasn’t there, and I had no knowledge of any social gathering on-site.”

The original speak-easies, of course, popped up in the Prohibition era, when bars were banned from selling booze.
